    The rules and the FAQ seem quite clear on this so I’m sorry to ask for reassurance but I just want to be clear. If you have a FAO or a spotter, any number of regular or veteran indirect firing weapons can use them see a target to fire at and do so during the same turn and at different targets the FOA and spotter might see? And this is also the case for a Forward Air Observer? This seems quite a big change from V2.

    Yes – its a massive change.

    Basically if its firing indirect and not inexperience or a multi-launcher then it can draw LoS for ANY/ALL spotters or Observers (no distinction between air or artillery).  You need to loose LoS from ALL possible spotters (or just receive an order by any means other than FIRE!) to reset the range in score.

    EDIT – Also note as the spotter /observer is only providing LoS it doesnt matter what order they have received before the indirect unit gets its fire! order… (or advance in the case of light mortars and SPGs)
